Young woman's thoughts turn not lightly
but seriously to thoughts of loves of bon
nets Nor is it too soon to catch some
far-off whisperings of the coming styles.
The prophets who venture to predict on
so uncertain q subject, wisely say that
large hats and small bonnets will be
worn; the crown of the former still high,
Incllning to slope back. In spite of an
effort to introduce low crowns, the fancy
is for those that are high and square. In
bonnets the trimming is still massed in
front, and great license is granted in ma
terial used, ribbon, piece velvet. flowers
with eauze, all being used according to
the taste. In headgear as well as in
other matter pertaining to e woman's
toilet there is now a tendency
to originality and individuality,
and perhaps there is no department
where it is more important than in the
selection of bonnets, the nearness of the
face making it Imperative that there
should be no incongruity either in shape
or color. Milan straw of all shades will
be popular, and is being imported in
fancy braids. In elegant bonnets for ate
occasions, real Jewels are introduced in
the trimming. There is a disposition
manifested for subdued colors, or when
rich colors are used they are so artistical-
" blended as to avoid all bizarre effect.
Feather edged ribbon will continue IN use,
much of il in fancy styles, striped and
checked.
Fine flowers like Scottish heather
bloom, elderberry blossoms, iorset-me-
nots and tiny close rosebuds are at hand.
These will be used as piques, or aigreties
to build up the front of bonnetS TO lie
regulation height. There are some broad
fiat bandeaus Of fine flowers shown for the
sides of bouuets and they are arranged in
the center so that they will mingle grace
fully with the high trimmings on the top
of bonnets; or they may be used with
bonnets having a lower crown if the trim
mer desires
